Repeat IN IRELAND AND ABOLITION IN AMERICA.— ‘The attempt to enlist the Irish in America in a crusade against southern institutions has had a miserable overthrow. ‘The ‘Grand National Re- peal Convention” was a most unfortunate specula- tion. The mass of the Irish people amongst us havea strong affection for the land of their ances- tors, and a pure,deyvoted attachment to the principles of liberty and to free institutions- but their honest, guileless hearts, are practised upon by the artful demagogue, and the produce of their arduous and ineessant toil is seduced from them, avowedly to aid that cause which they so much desire to see trium phant, but as experience proves, to be squandered by the aspiring, who make the people the means by which they rise into notoriety, and give impetus to designs which their victimsdo not approve. Disas- ter, however, has attended the efforts of the dema- gogues. They failed to create an interest in their magnificent scheme, but the loss to the honest re- pealer is the same; for the funds whica they con- uibuted with unsuspecting benevolence, have been squandered to defray the expenses of these delegates, to gratify whose vain and ambitious designs the convention was convened. But, we repeat, they have betrayed their weak- ness. At the outset they resorted to fraud to give importance to their assemblage—they received men as delegates from towns and States to which they were strangers, and from places where no societies existed to represent—but they had no adhesive power amongst them, and they naturally tumbled to pieces. Give what complexion then they may to this aflair in their communications to O'Connell, here it is perfectly understood to have been a vain and hopeless attempt to give vitality to the mest hi- deous abortion. So long however as O'Connell can receive con- tributions to his rent, single disasters willnot abash him. Hear his language delivered on arecent oc- casion at a meeting of the Repeal Association at the Dublin Corn Exchange :— Mr. O'Connell read communications from Repeal So" cieties in various parts of America, enclosing money ; from New York, £18; from Utica, £23 ; from Harper’s Ferry, Virginia, £26 3s 10d ;_from ‘the Falls River Asso- ciation, £50; and from New York, £25. He considered the contribution from Virginia to be very important, as affording a proof that the part taken by the Repeal Associa: tion, in reference to the question of American slavery, had not diminished the sympathy of the real friends of liberty in America. He was delighted to find that there was 50 much just feeling amidst the contaminating influence of the slaveholding institutions. And again :— Mr. O’Connell teok occasion te make some further ob- servations on the subject of slavery in the United States. He had proclaimed there the sentiments of the association, and their abhorrence of negro slavery and slavery of every kind, no matter what the creed, caste ,or color ot the wretched victim might be. (“ Hear, hear, hear!” and loud cheers) He husled the indignant ‘feelings of his soul against those who in Ameriea practised that hideous and unchristian custom of holding their fellow- men as slaves. If he did not use harsher language in reference to them, it was because he did not know Conscrence.— What a curious effect do the small premptings have upon the actions of men. How frequently do we see persons, who when their pecu- niary interests are concerned, deliberately set at nought all laws human and divine. For afew dol- lars will they not ouly stifle the “still small voice,” but run risks depending entirely upon insufficiency of proof, to escape the punishment of human laws. We have seen a man accustomed to lecture the public on the immoralities of the age, occupy a building which he had mortgaged for $65,000, and which was assessed at $56,000, go before the com- mirsioners and offer to take his oath that it was worth but $30,000, in order to save the tax upon the diflerence; yet when driven from the presence of the commissioners with shame for the attempt, would squander more than the sum he proposed te save, upon abandoned characters. In the midst of all this, none talked more loudly and energetically about morality and purity of conduct, the obser- vance of the Sabbath, and the depravities of the age in general. How frequently it is the case that they who most perseveringly set at nought the di- vine commands, have the precepts of the gospel most readily upon their lips. Why is thist Do they hope to deceive themselves, their maker, or their fellow men? Or sit that the goadings of the worm that never dies are somewhat d ned by talk? A-consolation seems to be derived from preaching to others the reverse of ones own prac- tices. It is the whistiing of the schoolboy. Yet how frequently by superficial observers is that talk- ing saint, but practised sinner, held up as an exam- ple te him who has ** kept the law from his youth up? How wise, and yet how utterly disregarded by the world is the precept “ Judge not lest ye be judged.” Canapian Skat or GoveRnmENT.—The contro- versy hitherto peaceably, though not very impar- tially conducted by the Canadian press, relative to the “disputed territory,” seems now to have assum- eda rather formidable character. The Kingston “Statesman” is the first tw speak out, and here he does it with a vengeance :— We care not “‘arap farthing” for Kingston, but we say emphatically, that Upper Canada must have her Legisla- tiveand Executive seat within her own boundary. If England cowers before her traitorous Co 1 Ministers, nada never will. If Sir Charles \ietcalfe wishes igitation, i ’s content! We tell him that Upper Canada must and will have the seat of Government, at all hazards, As this is a matter that comes peculiarly within the presence and within the decision of the united legislature, “‘we have no objection that they should agitate at all hazards.” Perhaps in imitation of another sect of agitators, we may be next told that unless Upper Canada becomes the seat of govern- ment, that a repeal of the recently established union of the Upper and Lower Canada provinces. will be the next subject of discontent. Her Majesty has many unruly children in this nursery of vagrant emi- gration. They,seem incortigibly opposed to her dis- cipline, and the more sugar plumbs she scatters amongst them, it would appear the more strife and competition they excite. Large From THE Coast or Arrica.—The Atalanta arrived yesterday afternoon in thirty-six days from Sierre Leone. any stronger than he had used, and he retracted nothing; he shrunk from nothing he had said, and he would not be the advocate of liberty in Ireland if he were not the advocate of freedom for every human being in every portion of the globe. (Cheers.) “England possessed this ‘advantage, that her flag could not flutter over the head of asiave, and practical domestic slavery was put an end to wherever the British flag was predominant. He (Mr. O'Connell) had spoken of the stain upon the Ameri can flag, the dark stain of negro slavery, and he would neither retract that accusation nor shrink from its asser- tion. Healso spoke ofthe hideons manner in which the slave must be treated ; the impossibility of his getting fair- play or justice when he had no command of his own per son, nor had anything he could call his own but the soul by which he was animated. (Hear.) He had heen met from America with an extreme degree of abuse, but he delighted in that abuse, because it showed their sensitive- ness to his charge ; it showed they were sensible it was a degradation to have such things said of them. They had a right to be angry, and by being so, vindicated him (Mr. O'Connell) and his principles, and condemned themselves by the consciousness they thus exhibited of their own guilt. (Cries of “ Hear, hear.”) Yes, he was rejoiced at 1. (Loudcheers.) They had called him a slanderer and « base, malignant traducer, and what proof had they ad- duced of his being ag? He said they treated as slaves the negro human being, born in the hope ofthe samo redemp- tion, endued with the same immortal soul, and destined for eternity as they were. ‘They treated as slaves the ne- groes so endued, their brothers in the creation, their equals in every tie of humanity; and he would remind the Ame- ricans of this, that there were qualities which the negro possessed in 4 higher degree than any other class, and these were the qualities of affection and gratitude. (Hear ) Let not the Americans suppose that the spirit of republi. canism could cover the enormous guilt of humen slavery. (Hear.) It was not to be mitigated. en to think, that, by calling it an institution, they could get rid of the atrocity of the system. It was so much the worse to have it an institution. (Hear.) Thus while avowing the double purpose of the Repeal movement to be to dissever Ireland from England and to emancipate the slaves in America, he derives consolation from the contribution from the Repealers of slave-holding Virginia. ‘He con. sidered the contribution from Virginia to be very important, as affording proof that the part taken by the Repeal Asgociation in reference to the question of American slavery had not diminished the sym. pathy of the real friends of liberty in America.” Of this he boasted as a proof of the existence of what he was pleased to call ‘‘ just feeling amidst the con- tamimating influence of slave-holding institutions.” Of the extent of this Repeal movement then it is clear that we entertain no mistaken views: We hear them from the “ Liberator”—and we had them as plainly expressed by delegates in the “Grand National Convention” here, and thus it is that we felicitate ourselves and our Southern brethren on the abortive attempt to establish a foreign inter- ference with American institutions. If, however, a single doubt should remain, let it be dispelled by the following emphatic language, used by the Dic- tator, which we trust will stand asa beacon light to warn the South of the threatened danger :— Let Ireland have her legislative independence, and, then, she will have her missionaries to preach freedom in every region where slavery degraded the human race. ft has been said by an ancient writer that where there is shame, there may be virtue; and may we not then in charity hope that the son and private Secretary of the President of these United States has some compunctious visitingst Why was it that Mr. Robert Tyler, whose family boast is that it is wholly and essentially Virginian—slave-holding Virginia—a State in which he firet saw the light of heaven, in which he was nurtured, and in which are all the associations of his infancy and growing man- hood—why, we ask, did he shrink from the avowal of his Virginian origin, and appear in this Conven- tion asa delegate from the State of Pennsylvania? To be sure the position of his parent has exiled him from Virginia temporarily, but still he resides with- in what was once the boundaries of that State— the slave-holding district of Columbi This incident is of as much import as the contribution to O’Connell’s rent from the Repealers of Virginia; and when we see this approval of the ictator’s double purpose,which affects the countries on both sides of the Atlantic, emanating from the hearth of the President of the United States himself, we once more congratulate our Southern friends on the total and absolute failure of the disorganizing scuemes which we have here seen attempted, Arrkorniaté.—An advertisement appeared in an evening paper the other day, which set forth, in columns, the expenditures on account of cleaning the streets for @ period therein designated; and the whole was wound up with a piece of music, the necessary bars having been cast for Rewspaper pub. heation, to give the air to the words—* © jet my days be clear and bright!” This is an apprepriate song for this city, though we suspect the connection of the two appropriate things, was an accidental one. Urs axv Downs.—It was more than rumored at Quebec that at a meeting which took place in that city, it was determined to bring forward the Hon Louis Joseph Papineau, recently permitted under an eet of amnesty to return from his exile, as a member for that city. Mr. Papineau filled the chair of Speaker at f the outbreak Mu..erism in CanaDa.—The Mayor of Toronto has officially denied his permission to Mr. Fitch to deliver lectures on the Second Advent in the City ‘all of the Meirovelis of Canada Weet The U. 8. sloop Saratoga, Commodore Perry, and brig Porpoise, Lieut. Stellwagger, left Mon rovia, August 5th, for Cape Palmas, thence the Sara- toga would proceed to Porto Praya, Cape de Verds, to meet the Macedonia flag ship. The Porpoise would remain ou the coast. All well. The new mission formed at the Gaboon River by the Missionary of the A. B.C. F. M., was in a most prosperous condition. Children were sent puce- tually to school, and the natives were attentive at divine service. They had in a great measure given up their old custom of trading on the Sabbath. The French had been endeavoring to purchase lands in the river, but had not succeeded very well. Finding it a failure, the commander of the French squadron represented to one of the kings the ne- cessity of their having a depot for stores, &e. for their squadron, and obtained permission to build houses; but inthe completion of which, the com- mander thought a few pieces of articles would be indispensable, and, therefore, landed a few. They have built three houses, but not like a fortification. They keepan armed ship there all the time, and it is to be presumed, therefore, that they will continue todo so, until they find it can be dispensed with. They have purchased several pieces of lands along the coast to the north of the river, and it is said, they will fortify them also. Time alone, however, will show. A Sineutar Duet.—A curious affair came off in Philadelphia on Friday last, which is thus described in the Philadelphia Chronicle of Paturday :— A rencontre took place last evening, in Chesnut street, between Seventh and Eighth, between Al- bert G. Enos, a midshipman in the U.S. Navy, and James J. Dickens, of Washington, when the latter drew a pistol and shot at the former. Enos, it ap- peared, attempted to cowhide Dickens. ~.e po.ice were quickly on the spot, but the partics aad fled. The affair, we learn, grew out of a forme: difficulty about a young lady. A challenge had passed, and Dickens issued a pamphlet, in which Enos was pret- ty severely dealt with. These pamphlets were dis- tributed quite freely in Washington, and Enos fol- lowed Dickens to this city, with the intention of cowskinning him, and the result was as above sta- ted. The report of the pistol brought a crowd to the neighborhood, who witnessed the fight between the two, with pistol and cowskin, with apparent de- light. We believe there was no damage done wor- thy of notice. We saw one of them running up Chesnut street ; what became of his competitor, or either of them, afterwards, we did not learn. Destructive Fire in Danvers.—We learn that a very serious fire broke out in Danvers, Mass., last Thursday night. It destroyed a large amount of property in the South village. We annex the parti- culars :— The fire commeuced in William Berry’s wheel wright’s shop, which was totally destroyed. Thence to John Dodge’s blacksmith shop— royed; a ca- binetmaker’s shop—destroyed; a soase, occupied by Mrs Very—destroyed. The fire passed thence to the South Meeting house, just built for the use of the Rey. Mr. Field’s Orthodox Congregational Society. The building was not quite finished, and was insured, we understand, at the Manufacturers’ office in Boston for $ The insurance was ef- fected only the day before, at the instance of the bank, which refused, it is said, to advance a loan, excepton a policy of insurance. The meeting house wasintended to be the largest in the county. Thence to Mr. Dane’s shoe factory—destroyed; thence to Mr. Morrison’s shoe factory, destroyed. Southwick & Ferrin’s grocery store, late E. Poor’s—destroyed. The fire next passed to Mr Goodridge’s Essex Cofiee House, a handsome brick edifice, ef modern erection, and believed to be the most spacious hotel in the county. The building is said to be insured tor $5,000, a sum much below iis cost. It was totally destroyed, as was the stable attached to it, but several small buildings near by, belonging to Mr. Goodridge, were fortunately preserved His loss was however increased by a large quantity of goat skins, purchased within a day or two, which were destroyed, together with the building in which they were stored Charles Lamberi’s grocery and dry goods stere—destroyed. Healey Morse’s house and stable—destroyed. “The ig house occupied by Joseph Fairfield and Nath’l Symonds, formerly a tavern—destroyed. House occupied’ by the Misses pms tomange | The house occupied by Caleb Lowe,corver of Foster street, caught fire repeatedly, but it was as often extinguished, and the extension of the conflagration in that quarter Lage pre- vented. Allen’s building, in which are the bank, postoffice, &e., caught several times, but was pre- served in a similar manner. ‘I'he fire could net be considered as subdued until about day-break. Muetcat.—Mres. Bailey and Signor DeBegnis are at Toronto, and have announced a concert, the pro- ceeds of which are to be devoted to the benefit of the House of Industry of that city. They have been very successful in Canada Chatnam Tura ‘The theatrical war wages with increased fierceness as each revolving sun brings to light new bills of attraction et the several rival houses.

To Mr. Hyatt, and every one of the ladies hereinbefore mentioned, many of whom were very engaging, and all of whom were ve king, courteous, communi- cative and intelligent, the thanks of the correspondent of the Herald are respectively given. In the afternoon, Mr. Van Buren and the Governor visited the Fair. Acricucturat Fain—Movements or Mn. Van Buren any Gov. Boucx.—Mr. Van Buren and Gov. Bouck, ac- companied by the late Mayor Gould, of this city, ina plain carriage, drawn By two democratic looking horses, went down to thegrand enclosure of the Fair. On en- tering the arena, the carriage was driven around the outer circle of the field, between the cattle and the feace, with- outoccasioning any particular demonstration, except a stretching of necks, a storm of inquiries among the thou- sands of the sturdy old fashioned yeomanry, and general preparatory expectoration of tobacco juice, and arrived at the entrance on completing the eutside circle. Gen. Gould introduced Gay. Bouck to the people, who politely lifted his hat and dismounted. Mr. Van Buren was introduced, who also lifted hie hat, and dismounted. Down came the irresistible democracy upon him in a perfect rush. Gov. Bouck was separated trom the Ex President and the General by a coup-demain. The General and Mr. Ven Buren pushed for the great beoth, wherein the fruits and flowers of the Fair are exhibited. But at the first door the pressure from within to see him presented an impreg- nable barrier, and he was borne ayy by the pregsure without to the second, aud the third doors, and didn't get into the booth at all. He wandered about with tre General over the rocky, stumpy, and uneven ground, like a blind man, nor could he see five feet before him, and as to looking over the heads of the six foot yeomanry, it was out of the question. He looked to the ground, he wiped the sweat from his face, he smiled, and ran against the endof a Durham bull, ‘Head him agin!” shouted the people. “We ought to have Botts here!” ™ Head him bays—by G—d I want to get hold of the little chap’s corn-stealer! Hurrah for Van Buren !” He was fairly headed, and next got into a labyrinth of bar shear ploughs and harrows. He struck out again, knowing no more where he was going than the man in the moon. He wandered about the field, hither and back, and finally got safely again to the ane and escaped. He kept his feet remarkably well. Had he fallen down, the democratic nomination would fall upon Calhoun, for the Ex-Presi- dent would certainly have been trampled to death. At half past two o'clock Mr. Van Buren and Governor Bouck met again at the Eagle, dined, and at five o’clock visited the exhibition of the Mechanics’ Fair at the Market House, and at a quarter to five climbed up three pair of stairs to Talman Hall, where the Orphans’ Fair is being held, escorted by Governor Bouck on his right, and Mr. Joseph Strong, collector of the port of Ge. nesee on his left. When these illustrious visitors arrived at the head of the stairs, the orphans, some forty in num- ber, of from 5to § years, seated on an elev: platform at the other extremtty of the room, arose, and struck u “Hail Columbia, happy, land,” which they sung with much spirit. Mr. in Buren passed up, smiled gracious- ly upon theorphans, passed round the eastern range of tables, of fruits and flowers, bowed and smiled to the la- dies, who bowed and smiled in return; returning up the centre, came to a dead halt at the sods fount; whe: Excellency and his two friends drank a glass of sod saparilla syrup; were in transpot nd the fair guardian spirits of the fount it the honor conferred. Mr. Van Bu. ren, the Governo: id Mr. Strong, dropped at the book- table, and their two Exeellencies bought each of Mrs. Monford, a copy of "The Orphans’ Souvenir,” the two dollar copy, visited all the tables in succession, and then passed over to their quarters at the Eagle. Mr. Van Bu- ren wore a plain black hat, vest and coat ,and check pants; Governor Bouck ditto ditto, excepting hishat, which was white, and his pants, which were ofa grey color. Mr. Strong worea frock coat and drab pants. The Governor and Mr. Strong had canes, Mr. Van Buren had no cane— dido’t needone. Mr. Buren looked very hearty and ruddy, the Governor looked well, Mr. Strong did not look so very well. There are,! guess, not less than fifteen thousand stran- gers inthe city, at least 4,000 wheeled carriages in full Operation, {and' 10,000 horses. And in the show ground some 60 Durham bulls, 20 stud-horses, several hundred sheep and hogs, @ thousand horses of all kinds, and five thousand people, I thought were a spectacle of live stock worth a journey from Kinderhook. And this was in the point m when Mr. Van Burer and the crowd had thin- ned 1 Tue State Acricucturat Surren —The south side of the railroad depot was fenced from the side through which the trains pass by a partition t feet in height, forming a lofty and commodious agricultural saloon ‘of 270 feet in length by 40 feet in width. From this extensive hall ran four porellel tables of 190 feet long, upon which a bountiful supper of roast pigs, r fowls, beef, bacon, bread, butter and pastry were dis for the 1040 plates laid down. The supper wat nounced to come off at seven o'clock. As early several thou x nds of bead dag avant dp om and without tickets, and all hungry, (for many of them had found it impossible to get a dinner such was the throng at the hotels, boarding houses, and booths during the day,) were collected at the doors of the depot. Ata quarter past seven, a door was openedjand ten minutes therea(ter there were 1140 men seated, at the tables, and perhay hundred standing in the helping themsel ‘oast turkey or pi eces with their hands. tickets were a superorogation; | have mine in my pocket still. At the south end of the hall, a platform was erected provided with seats for a band of music, where also were a score or two of ladies. I had mistaken the spot before the music arrived, for the head quarters,and had eases through to this position, with the most determined jesperation accordingly. While a number of the com- pany were still pee | the fragments, and while the ery for “water” was universal, with ariver at our feet, a man commenced speaking midway the room ata little side table against the southern wall. Pushing forward to the nearest opposite table, | had the gratification of pro- curing a seat of a sturdy tarmer for the moderate price of four shillings. The small side-table was the seat of the lions—there sat the President of the Society in the centre, with the Ex-President of the United States on his right, Mayor Hill, of Rochester, on his left, and the Committee of Arrangements around them. Mr. Wadsworth congratulated the Society on the pre- eminent success of the fair, the specimens of stock, imple- ments and agricultural productions exhibited. To im- press the supremacy of agriculture, he referred tu the 3,700,000 engaged in it in the United States, whilethere were but 800,000 employed in manufactures, and 117,000 in commerce ; and further said, in evidence, that the an- nual corn and potato crop of the country exceeded invalue the entire amount of capital invested in manufactures. Alluding to Mr. Ferguson, of Canada, he expressed his disappointment that he could not participate, having been kept out by the pressure of the crowd. We had tried the nation,of which this gentleman was a citizen, in the field of war and on the ocea the result had been such that neither might be ash: . appropriate field of contest—the ploughed field. while England raised forty bushels of wheat to the acre while we raised but fifteen, we Lig acknowledge that she would be pretty hard to whip, meet her where we may. (Cheers.) The crowd of unsophisticated farmers rose upon the benches to see what was in the wind; when, amid cries of down ! down | the band struck up and play- "The ed an air, after which the President proceeded.

(The cars from the East game into the depot—three cheers for Webster were gre. who was loudly called for but did not appear.) Mr. Van Buren was announced. Mr. Van Buren arose amid the hearty cheers of his fellow-farmers. He acknowledged with feelings of sin- cere gratification that his reception on this occasion had given him greater pleasure than he had ever helore ex- perienced. He plead his inability to converse on the subject of ulture before a meeting of a character like this, but it had ever been a rule with him to do all in his power for the promotion of a public object, where that object is beneficial. Before the mass of farmers here assembled, it would be idle in him to treat of a sub- ject of agriculture as it would be to carry coals to New- castle. But it was not inconsistent on this occasion to see, the pleasure he had experienced from the exhi- bitions of this day. His expeetations had been high, but they were more than realized. He referred to his visit to the Orphan’ ir, and with the soft and musical voice ef lover, poke of the enterprizing spirit of benevolence of the di ters of the land. Who can look upon the fruits of their labor without feelings of pride and satis- faction? (Cheering and laughi He next referred to his recent practical experience as a farmer, and said that the two years of his whole life in which he had sniored the greatest happiness were the two last, in whichhe had been practically engaged in agriculture. (Cheers.) Two years ago he commenced the cultivation of a farm of 16 acres, at which time the crop that it yielded fell short in hay and oats for the subsistence of the stock ; the second vear he had nearly oats enough, and ittle hay over; and the present year he had raised a sutfi- ciency of other things and had 80 tons of hay to spare. (Cheers, and a voice, “ you had better stick toit.”) With an apology, Mr. Van Buren expressed a hope that on some future occasion he might be enabled to bestow more important information hs the subject then he could now give; ond finished by the declaration in thanking the meeting for their manifestations of respect, that upon no honor, no expression of respect, did he place valne than upen that which he had received of tl ciety. ‘ebster and Granger were demanded by the yeoman- ty in a ve enthusiastic fashion, Amid the contention, a stranger in the rear arose and made a speech, and pro- posed a sentiment: “ The farmers of New York—it is a credit to them thut they have one who is capable for an; office within their gift.” A very equivocal toast ; but it was received with a round of applause. Governor Bouck was called for, amid stamping and crashing glasses, and the band struck up an air. The President appealed to the gentlemen standing on the tables to sit down, and give the ladies on the platform a view of the speakers. Down! down! ‘The President announced the arrival of “Francis Granger—the favorite son of Western New York,” and introduced kim to the cheers of the yco- manry. Mr. Granger, mounted on one of the cars outside of the partition, arose, and the thirteen hundred inside arose, and cheered, and several fractions of the tables broke down, when Mr, G. said that it would be useless to say anything here for the farmers of Western New York, when they are all, every mon on the ground. Well might Western New York be proud of her elevation. Feebly could ie express his emotions ashe came up in the cars, and recollected that the man who sowed the first bushel of wheat in Genessee, Abner Barlow, (90 years old,) was now in sound health, and was then in bit vigorous middle manhood. The world had never seen such an instance of advancement as this. He accredited itto Yankee enterprise. What has been doneeven in my short day, for short it is, although 1am getting a little in the gray ofthe morning? (Evening he should have said.) Tremember when Rochester was not a village— when the mere stege-driver barely stopped to water his horses. And what was it now ? and what is Western New York ? The most splendid country of any inthe world. (Cheers) At one time we were peculiarly fa. vored in getting a stagetwice per week, and now in a lit- tle train I have {come up with eleven huncred pene gers. I propose as a sentiment, “ The surviving P joneers of Western New York. They descended from their Pis- ah to enjoy the sweet valley below.” (Great cheering ) The President announced Daniel Webster, when there was a perfect storm of applause, which at once became confusion almost hopeless. The President at last pro- posed as the preliminary requisition, that gentlemen standing on the tables and benches before the ladies should give way. Some of the yeomanry acceded, and Mr. Webster mounted a high bench before the President (cheers,) and said, Gentlemen:—I have (prolonged cheer- ing) made a rapid journey of five hundred miles for the pleasure ot meeting here the representatives of the great State of New York. I have Just stepped out of the cars without a change of raiment, and without resting since leaving the city of New York. Mr. W. then briefly ad- dressed the meeting in an sdlogy anon agriculture, the State of New York, and the great Rochester Fair, and con- ratulated himself on the certainty of being able to take ack some new and interesting facts to the farmers of Massachusetts. Premising to be with us all day to-mor- Tow, he was permitted to retire. eee Mr. Ferguson, a Canadian subject of her Britannic Ma jesty, next mounted the rostrum, and delivered avery jumorous and inser speech on the policy and wisdom of a fraternal allianze between England and the United States. He was well received. After his speck. he pro. posed “ The health of his friend, President Wadsworth;” which was heartily accepted by the meeting. Mr, Wadsworth replied, expressing the gratitude of the city to the farmers of the county for this affair, to the society for their indulgence of his defects, and proposed “ The City of Rochester and its inhabitants.” Mayor Hall addressed the thanks of the corporation to the society, and enlarged upon the rapid growth of Wes. tern New York. The President laid before the mecting the toast sent forward by the veteran Abner Barlow : ‘‘ The editors of the United States—-they area stock which needs no im- proving.” Ah! my dear old granddad, I’m afraid you are flattering us; indeed I am. @Mr. Dawson, editor of the Rochester Democrat, was “« pressed into the service,” to answer this sentiment, and Bowe | to make a specch, broke down the reporters’ table, nearly the Jast ten feet remaiming of the four leng lines of two hours befere. After a witty 5 sh by Mr. Dawson, the meeting adjourned. None of the toasts were drunk, for there was not even water to drink at the table, alter the first glass. Altogether, the supper, though very noisy and disorderly, was a spirited concern, except in gorman- dizing, in which the most enthusiastic unanimity of spi- Tit prevailed. It has been utterly impossible, and not at all important, to give you a list to day of tl ull studs, bo: mares, ewes, and cows, potatoes, Ce tomat .C., grapes, peaches, pears, fens (ioe C+, KC, of the implements, and of the eagle, large as ife, wrought of flowers and evergreens, with his wings expanded; and of the star of wild flowers, the cactus from Mount Hope, the geraniums, and the honey-combs in glass pyramids; and the innumerable shoals of the fair sex; and how they were pleased with the big Durhams and the large horses, all have to attend to to-morrow, together f the premiums; and something of the Fair.

Exrraorpinary aNp AtRociovs Murper —The following appears in the Dover (N. H.) Enquirer of the 21st inst. — A bold and daring murder was committed at Ro- chester, about fifteen miles above this town, on Tuesday the 19th inst. In a remote part of the town, near the line of Farmington, a woman by the name of Phebe Hanson, was shot in her own house at noonday. Miss Hanson was a maiden ay, some- what advanced in years, and with her brother, also unmarried, occupied the house. About neon, a neighbor by the name of Page, heard the report of a gun at the house of Mr. Hanson, and thinking it somewhat extraordinary, proceeded immediately to thehouse. Before he arrived there he saw three men advancing towards the house 1m an opposite di- rection, with guns upon their shoulders, and who reached the house and entered it a few minutes be- fore him. When he arrived, he found them seated in the kitchen. On inquiring for Miss Hanson, he was told that she was in the front entry asleep. Mr. Page then pro- ceeded directly to the entry, where he found Miss Hanson, bleeding profusely, and dead. He im- mediately exclaimed to the men that she was dead, supposing at the time that she might have fallen down siairs. They expressed some surprise at the announcement, but left the house immedi- ately and preceeded into the woods. The alarm was given, and they were arrested. Two of them, who are brothers, of the name of Howard, were taken in this town on Wednesday morning, just as they were about entering the cars at the de- pot for Boston. They belong in the v.cinity of the murder, and were taken to Rochester for examina- tion. The object in perpetrating the crime is sup- posed to have been plunder, as it was known that the Hansons were in the habit of keeping a conside- rable sum of money in their house, But little mo- ney, however, was obtained, as the trunk which contained the principal part of it was either over. looked, or the villains had not time to secure it. e, Hanson was absent at the time, at the Great ‘alls. The examination of the Howards resulted in their committal to jail in this town last evening. One ot them confesses the murder. Riot ar Witmeron.—The Delaware State Journal, says:—"* A disturbance rather unusual for our peaceable city, took place on Wedneeday night last, which was accompanied by some loss of pro- perty. A load of flour barrels was brought in from the country in the evening, and bought and paid for by Messrs. Price of Brandywine. ‘They were not, however, stowed away inthe mill that night, as was usual, but left in the wagon at Hopple’s Tavern. About 12 o’clock at nighta number of persons took possession of the wagon, and proceeded vary sum- marily to dispose of its conten:s. The barrels were taken out,one by one, tothe number of 150, and broken to pieces, the staves, heads and hoops being piled in the middle of Shipley street, where they were still visible yesterday morning. When the rioters had finished their work, they gave three cheers and departed, without doing any further in- jury. We have not heard thatany of the persons concerned in this affair were recognized, or that quy one hasbeen arrested. Suspicion, of course, is fixed upon the coopers, but who are the men 1” Yertow FevenThis horible fever is yet in New Orleans and Mohila ah Sava . {Correspondence of the Herald.) Savannan, Sept. 16th, 1843. Crops, Politics, Railroads. To mm Eprror or tae New Yorx Heraup— Dear Sin:— ; Being a constant reader of your invaluable jour- and knowing the great iaterest you take in placing before the numerous readers of the Herald any information that would be acceptable to them, I have thought a few lines from here, relative to the crops, politics, &c. would be worth the postage. There are various conjectures as to the probable yield of the growing cotton crop of the United States. The knowing oues are all, however, of the opinion, that under the most favorable circumstan- ces, it cannot exceed 1,800,000 bales, and some think that it will not exceed 1,500,000 bales. Much, however, will depend on the weather for the next two months ; should it be warm and dry, I am of opinion that the highest estimate will be exceeded, while on the other hand, if we should be visited with much rain, and a frost as early as the 10th or 20th of October, even the minimum may not be realized. In consequence of the probability of a short crop, cotton has advanced to 73c. for fair; good fair would probably command 8c; but of this descrip- tion there is none in market. The new crop reach- es us in small quantities, and as the farmers are busily engaged in gathering it, we shall not expect the receipts to be large before the latter end of Oc- tober. The rice crop never promised a more abundant yield than at present, and with two weeks more of fine weather, the harvest will be over. The provision crop generally will be a large one. We are fast recovering from the difficulties brought about by the ruinous credit system, and the affairs of the people are generally in better condi- tion than for many years past; nearly all are clear of debt and but few are disposed to purchase on credit; and if they were, our merchants are unwil- ling to sell their goods unless for cash, or on short credit, to those who they know to be prompt intheir payments. Our bankstoo have been acting very prudently for some time past, and are now in a situ- ation to afford facilities to the merchants ; they will readily discount good business paper, and purchase northern exchange, but are not disposed to counte- nance anything like kiting. ae The Central Railroad is completed to within three miles of Macon, a distance of 188 miles, and the Monroe Railroad from Macon to Griffin, 60 miles, so that passengersgoing to South Western Georgia, Mobile or New Orleans, travel from hence to Griffin, 250 miles on railroads, and only three miles of staging. The fare is low, and passengers will find it to taeir advantage to take this route, instead of going by way of Charleston, Augusta, Madison, &c., where there is about 70 miles stage riding, on roads none of the best. Much new business is ex- cted here this season from the interior that has eretofore gone to other markets. s As we are on the eve of an important election, which takes place in this State on the first Monday in October, for Governor and two members to Con- grees, (to fill vacancies,) it will not be perhaps unin- teresting te say something about the prospects of the two great parties that are contending for office. The prospects for the success of the Democratic party in Georgia, since the recommendation of Mr. Calhoun as a candidate for the Presidency by the June convention held at Milledgeville, have been extremely flaitering ; but since the result of the Syracuse convention, recently held in New York, has been made known here, great fears are enter- tained of defeat at the approaching contest by this party, forno man is more unpopular in Georgia than Mr. Van Buren; hence the proceedings of the democrats of the great State of New York in elect- ing delegates to the Baltimore Convention favorable to him, will cause a lukewarmness at the South, and the election in this State, which was considered but a few days ago ascertain to result favorable to democracy, 18 now considered very doubttul. Should Van Buren receive the nomination by the Baltimore Convention, Clay will carry this State by an overwhelming majority, and the same may be said of most of the Southern States. With Calhoun or Cass the result would be the reverse, particularly if Mr. Calhoua should receive the nomination, who is admired here by both parties for his purity as a man, and high-mindedness as a politician. With Mr. Van Buren tor their candidate, many of the democrats at the South will not vote at all, and they make nosecret of this determination. Thisdivision in their ranks makes the whigs sanguine, and from present appearances 1am inclined to believe that the chances are in favor of Henry Clay’s being the next president of this arent republic. A few of the democrats have still hopes that some other of the candidates than Van Buren will receive the nomina- tion ; but I do not think it probable, for Martin isa ft manager in such matters, and think he will, y packed committees, &c., succeed in having a majority of the delegates in his favor. _ : It serceanie te you, I will ut some future time, le y' f trouble you with the news from this ancient a of Oglethorpe. Yours truly, B. A.B. Pittsburg. [Correspondence of the Herald.) Dear Sirn— Pirrspura, Sept. 18, 1843. Ihave set down on this occasion to give you a small sprinkle of the sayings and doings in this grim city. First and foremost, I will let you know that the at- mosphere to-day is rather uncomfortably hot, and asanecessary tact, of course it is not the most balmy in the world, or the most admired by the lo- vers of “ Sabean odors, from the spicy shores Of Araby the blest.” The Jate rise in the river has caused a considera- ble stir. The quantities of freight that have been lying here during low water, will now be shipped.— The limber shins who preside over the destinies of the commission houses facing the river, will have a glorious chance to work the stale marrow out of their bones, and also get rid of a certain dismal hy- pechondria arising from the combined effects of dullness, heat, and other causes which shall be nameless. The morality of the city is about the same. The King of Terrors has a pretty fair prospect of getting a goodly number of the sinners here assembled : though the temperance pledge has been held out to their stony hearts through as much bad grammar, fire and gesture, mingled with tears of reforme drunkards, and the smiles of dear women, as is pos- sible for any sensible being to imagine ; yet, have they turned their backs upon all this, and with chuckle said, ‘You can’t come it—indeed you can’t.” Thus you see we are a philosophical peo- ple, and a eae fond cf Kelbourn’s claret punches, those little square bits of cheese with a cracker in, that Libbets, Williams and Colonel Pratt, from the cold water army, might as well talk and thunder to the Egyptian Sphynx for the purpose of getting it to tell the history of “ Those temples, palaces, and piles stupendous, Of which the very ruins are tremendous,” as to try to get numbers here to come out and help the cause. ‘i That old superstructure which has been styled the aqueduct, and which has for a number of years stretched across the Alleghany river, uniting the wa- ters of the canal on the opposite side to the waters on this, has at length given symptoms of a tumble- down nature, by no means pleasant to every body A committee were appointed to examine the sad aqueduct, and they gave as their opinion that it could be fixed in short notice and with trifling expense ; ont, inthe humble opinion of nearly every body else, no other fixing will do but to tear it down and build a new one. Some repairs have been made at it, but when such a huge thing as that gets rotten withage, and every board and log in i:, with every stone under it seem to say, “I'm not going to hold out much longer, that’s certain,’’ there is no pateh- work going to do much good, and the money thus expended is only thrown away, All this is highly entertaining to the property-lolders on the Allegha- ny side, who, are already beginning to laugh with delight at the idea of Jarge fortunes from this event, and to the generality of citizens there, who picture aglorious revolution for their city, with dim dreams ot their own future prosperity rising in their minds, but doomed to burst and vanish like empty bubbles scattered on the air. Thus you see we are advancing rapidly into the hell-begotten shades of human selfishness—it is not who will benefit his fellow-men the most by acts of kindness and dear delightful generosity, but who will accumulate in his own pocket. and store away in hisiron chests the greatest piles of gold. What is learning? What is religion compared to it? Those who have nothing more are looked upon as paupers ae many narrow minds, who work them- selves in by cunning tricks, and suck the blood of the community to bloat their carcasses. Ha! ha! ha! We are agreat people, and a thriving people— full of energy, and full of republicanism, but wolul ly behind in some things—and who don’t ry it? (rg The weather is certainly most extraordina- ry. Yesterday was one of the warinest days we have had this summer—the thermometer about 90— and yet it was the 2st of September. We doubt whether the oldest inhabitants can recollect a sea- on like thie, We had frost on the first of June and summer heats ja autunitedlbany Argue, Nap $2) City Intellig A Fivuneo Kwave.—The imposition practised upon emigrants who arrive at this port are almost in every instance to be traced to the countrymen of the men who have been duped, and among the German emigrants, who are the easiest tobe deceived, German Jews are al- ways found as the rogues who commit the depredation, On the 12th instant a body of German emigrants, amount: ing to eighty, arrived at this port in the ship Backus, from Hamburgh, under the direction of Charles F, Pelsch, who acted as their agent. A German named William Rischmiller, who is pretty well krown among hiscountrymen as a slippery fellow, immediately intro- duced himself to Mr. Pelsch as a person of some influence and bustness, and after ascertaining that Mr. P. was the trustee of the party on rd, who were emigrating to Milwaukie, !linois, asked if Mr P.had not brought let. ters of introduction to W. F Scb: merchant of this city. On receiving an affirmative reply, he then told Mr. P. that he had been appointed by the government to receive all letters of introduction from German emi- grants, and wes paid $75 a month for such service. He alse said he was the agent of the German Society of this city, and therefore he could advance the interest of the whole party if hae.’ felt disposed to employ him. On these representations Mr. Pelsch gave up and transfe: red his receipts for commutation to the rogue, and on his stating that if they would engage passage with him to Milwaukie he ula have them brought tothe city by two o'clock that day, and if not, they would have to wait for several days, Mr. Pelsch made a ba. gain with him $9 per head, and paid an advance of $2 on each passen, Not satisfied with thus fleecing the poor emigrants, his own countrymen, he demanded $18 for hi ices, and *- $1 for “God’s money,” which were paid. Pelsch then went below to make some arrangementsa nd when he returned he found that Rischmiller had left. Supposing that all was right, the party waited in patience for three di \d then were obliged to leave the rt in a lighter. On arriving here, Mr. P called on Mr. Schmidt and en- quired iftne letters of introduction had been delivered to him by Rischmiller, who had also called himself Schmidt, as also if he nad received the receipts for commutation, and ihe wes ready to return the money over-paid. Mr. §. stated that he had no knowledge ofthe papers, and in the end it was found that Ricshmiller had obtained them and the money through false representations. The mat: ter wastaken betorethe Grand Jury last week, and an indictment being found, he was arrested yesterday on a bench warrant and committed to prison. A Lesson ror CLenxs 1n Stones —The tricks of rogues that infest our city are so variable, that tradesmen should alwaysclip from the newspapers any newly discovered trap, as a guide to their attendants. Yesterday, adecently dressed man entered the leather store of F. Knaufft, 33 Geld street, and purchased a bill of leather valued at $11. He then requested that the leather should be sent to the grocery store, corner of Church and Fulton streets, and also that $9 should be sent in change, as he had Pain Jess than a $20 billat the store. Giving the name of Wil- liam Morton at the store, he then lett. The boy proceeded on his errand, and arriving at the store, could not find Mr. Morton. He then returned, and while on his way was met by the gentleman, who appeared in great haste, say- ing that he had waited sometime at the place designated, and finally, being ina great hurry, had gone bask to the store and left the $20 note, when he was told he would meet the boy, who would give the leather and the change. ‘This fair statement prompted the unsuspecting boy to im- mediately deliver up the leather and thechange, when Mr. Morton soon vanished. The astonishment of the lad and his employer can easily be imagined when hearrived at the store and told the story of the stranger, which was reneunced to be false in every particular, as Mr. Morton faa never been near the primises with a $20 note. The rogue was immediately traced, and locked up to answer the charge of obtaining the leather and money by false pretences. Anaxst or 4 Gaxa or Counterreiters.—Kate Moore, alias Beaman, Ann and Bridget Nugent, Kate O'Brien, and Joseph Stillwell, alias Gasport, were arrested on Friday evening at their den for manufacturing counter- feit money, by Justice Matsell, aided by several officers. A variety of dry goods were found on the premises that had probably been purchased whil+ changing counte: feit money; also, a set of burglars’ instruments, three dies iting coin, and a quantity of counterfeit mo- ney. They were traced to their quarters from the fact of Bridget Nugent’s having passed a $5 counterfeit note of the Farmers’ Bank of Gen a few nights since, which notes have recently been put in circulation. It is tobe feared, that notwithstanding the vigilance of the Justice in this business, testimony sufficient has not been obtained to secure the conviction of any of the parties. Daownep in a Paivy.—A child, named Mary Louisa Simpson, oged a yearand a half, daughter of Elijah 8. Simpson, of 90 Suffolk street, was suffocated by falling into a sink yesterday. Court of Common Pleas. Decision before Judges Ulshoetfer, Ingraham, and Inglis, in banquo. Srrt. 23.—John Jewelt and others, vs. Alson Roberts and Wm G. Dunbar —The Judges this day gave their dec on points raised on the trial of thiscause. It wasan ac. tion to recover the amount of a promissory note, on which the defendants were endorsers. The case was tried on the 10th of January lest, before Ulshoeffer, who that, in his opinion, although sufficient diligence been used to ascertain the residences of the defendants, that the notices of protest were sufficient under the cir: cumstances, and that the plaintiffs were entitled to a ver- dict. The counsel for the defendants took exception to the charge on the grounds that the notice of protest was not fuffigient, and thet the notary «did not exercise due dili- genceto ascertain the residence of the endorsers. Judges Inccrs and Ivcranam held thet putting the no- tice of protest intothe post office was nothing, and that looking in the Directory, or asking one of the plaintifls, was not sufficient. They further add, “It ix apparent from many cases that come before us, that a great want of diligence in protesting notes is prevailing, owing to, perhaps, the great reduction which has been made in the compensation of those who perform that duty; that, how- ever, is no reason why therule should be modified as to the necessary proof required in such cases.” “ Ignorance of the residence of the endorsers does not excuse giving that notice whenever the residence is dis- oaverad: but it excuses the giving immediate notice of the protest of that note.” “We know of vo case where merely asking the holder for the place of residence of the endorser, and eee, into the ag Ar ic held i eaacan? and,that,more especially, where it appears that three days tuaeater the holders ‘had the note in their possession, with the place of residence of the endorsers written there. on.” “It appears due diligence was not used, and that the defendants were entitled to a nonsuit.” Judge Ursnorrren held that though sufficient dili- gence in his opinien had not been used to discover the re- sidencesof the endorsers, yet he was not disposed to hold that the defendants are released.
